[Verse 1: Anderson .Paak]
Why the hell would you run this game?
Both my hands are tied
Afraid of thinking I dug my own grave
f** around with this
Strange and elusive, too afraid to lose it
I don't mind this pain
Most n***as want you for your candy
They'll never know just how long it takes
I wave my own pride
And put it all on the line
[Chorus: Anderson .Paak]
There I go, volunteering, punish me
Self inflicted pain, sickness over used
Way over used
Here I stay, hey, time to time
It must be what you put me through
It must be what you put me through
[Verse 2: Anderson .Paak]
A little while longer
A bit more time
Why would you run these thoughts across my mind?
Please, relieve me
As cool as I remain
There's a point in which I'll lose my self restraint
Say, love, most n***as would've left you lonely
I fancy throwing it all away
I see it to my own demise
How much longer will I let it ride?
[Chorus: Anderson .Paak]
There I go, volunteering, punish me
Self inflicted pain, sickness over used
Will I let it ride? (Here I stay)
Here I stay, time to time
It must be what you put me through (yeah, time to time)
It must be what you put me through
[Outro: Anderson .Paak]
Hey it must be (here I stay time to time)
It must be what you put me through
It must be what you put me through
